engelsk titel: 21 ways to Ruin a Marriage
Sanna (Armi Toivanen) has clear rules when it comes to men. Sex is fine, occasionally, and preferably under the influence of alcohol. But she does not want to wake up to her bedmate and falling in love is out of the question.
Sanna believes that most relationships are doomed to fail - and as a sociologist she decides to set out to prove her theory (as well as justify her decision to remain single). After extensive studies interviewing married couples, Sanna concludes that divorce is a natural consequence of falling in love, and marriage is strictly a business transaction. But then she meets Aleksi, one of the study participants, at her best friend's 30th birthday party and her world of theories is suddenly turned upside down. [Nordisk Film]Region 2

(1980 Akira Kurosawa) 50:-
originaltitel: 影武者
Shingen (Tatsuya Nakadai), a powerful warload, has become as legendary as the motto emblazoned on his war banners. "Swift as the wind, silent as the forest, fierce as the fire, immovable as the mountain".
As he lies dying from his battle wounds, Shingen orders his clan to find a double to replace him - to keep his death secret so that his enemies will not attack. The man chosen for this role is called Kagemusha (the shadow of the warrior). However this Kagemusha turns out to be a petty criminal who must somehow transfer himself into a great leader and command allegiance of 25,000 samurai warriors. [20th Century]Region 2

At first she is very sad about her parents' deaths, but as time passes she realizes she must get out of that mood if she wants to survive. So at 14 she submits to a German officer's advances and is rewarded with privileges; in time she becomes a Kapo, one of the women prisoners who were in charge of disciplining the other women. Though she knows it's the only way to survive, she hides deep remorse behind an expressionless face. [Essential Art House]Region 1
